Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes a series of horrific discoveries about his client. Soon afterwards, various bizarre incidents unfold in England: an apparently unmanned ship is wrecked off the coast of Whitby, a young woman discovers strange puncture marks on her neck and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the 'Master' and his imminent arrival.
In Dracula, Bram Stoker created one of the great masterpieces of the horror genre, brilliantly evoking a nightmare world of vampires and vampire hunters and also illuminating the dark corners of Victorian sexuality and desire.

Terrific!
I loved every second of this. The narration is excellent. The telling of the story from the different diary entries works like a charm. Its engaging, suspensful and terriying in places. My heart dared not to beat at a normal pace the whole time i was listening. I highly recommend, definitely one everyone should read at least once.

A classic
A classic book that has been brought to life beautifully, the characterisations of Mena and Van Helsing were just fabulous.

An epic
I really enjoyed this book. Stoker put together a tense story expertly transmitted on audible. A classic not to be missed - so much more meaningful than the film.

Just perfect.
I knew that the narrator, Mark Gatiss, is a fan of the gothic style, but I wondered whether he would be too over the top in narrating this. However, he did a wonderful job, pitched just right. His narration is so good that I frequently forgot I was listening to just one person. Gatiss seems to have a real respect for the material and brings out all the nuances which can be missed when focusing on the horror part of the story. I would definitely buy more audio books by this narrator.

Astounding, smooth, picturesque
The almost ASMR quality of Gatiss' narration does well to justice such an deservingly authoritative novel of the gothic genre, Bram Stoker's pinnacle work, the irreverent Dracula. So unsullied by time and change, and yet so telling of the contemporary story, this book brings the reality and the fiction into the here and the now. 100% I would recommend this edition of the book, over any other.

Fantastic narration of a classic horror!
It is a brilliant story, encompassing much of the psychological and cultural conflicts (perhaps afflictions) of its time, including the author’s own.
Thanks for reading, Mr Gattis! I will try not to have nightmares!

Mark Gatiss is an exceptional narrator and reads this perfectly. A great story but enhanced more so by his performance.

A must listen!
Huge fan of Gatiss and Moffat's TV adaptation, but don't know the full Dracula story. Quite a long listen, but Gatiss' narration and distinction between characters is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!
